A beautiful poem written by Rabia al-Adawiyya (also known by Rabia Basri), and sang in the melodious voice of munshid Othman Al Rashidi. Its is a unique love song for the true love of her life, her creator Allah (swt).

This nasheed is about the first wife of the beloved Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h), Khadijah bint Khuwaylid. To be more specific, the nasheed is talking about her home in paradise which Allah (swt) has prepared for her...

(Father)Come on my daughter don't cryI know you don't like thatAnd not a once that you fell and didn't stand againLet's put my hand with your hand and the world's watching

(Daughter)Father my love, your speech is in my mindI know that my Father is one I can depend onWith the protection Of ALLAH, my worries have vanishedWith my Iman tough situations can't stand against me

(Father)Life gets sweeter even if I have to make it soWe'll be honey, and honey we make itAnd who stays dark in itDark it will be upon him, and his situation will be full of troubles

(Daughter)And the daylights of Dunya stay with us DaylightsAnd for its rivers we will be their riversAnd it fell upon who fell upon itAnd his daylight will remain dark in dark

(Both)Life gets sweeter even if we have to make it soWe'll be honey, and honey we make itAnd who stays dark in itDark it will be on him, and his situation will be full of troubles

(Daughter)What's happened Oh! Dad, and why you're sad?And what kind of thing that may have changed your heartIt's our GOD, who's changing our hearts feelings is in HIS handsSo ask HIM to bring happiness back to your Heart

(Father)My sweety, sadness near you has goneAnd by remembering ALLAH, the Heart has relaxedMay all the hearts stayFull of bliss towards each other and tenderness

It talks about people who worship idles, animals, fire and rocks, making these subjects their lords and making themselves slaves to these things..Then it talks about the prophet peace be upon him, who came with light and knowledge for the entire creation..

First, the nasheed is not in Classic Arabic it's in the dialect used in the Arabian Gulf countries..

Second, I wanted to use the Pictures of young people dressed in the traditional Gulf cloths and still go with the video which was VERY hard..
So please pardon all the mistakes in the photos, timing and translation and try to enjoy the nasheed anyway..
